This patch changes the eBPF CPU description to prefer the register
names %r0 and %r6 instead of %a and %ctx when disassembling. This
matches better with the current practice, vs. cBPF.
It also updates the GAS tests in order to reflect this change.
Tested in a x86_64 host.

This patch fixes the eBPF CPU description in order to reflect the
right explicit arguments passed to the ldabs{b,h,w,dw} instructions,
updates the corresponding GAS tests, and updates the BPF section of
the GAS manual.

gas/ChangeLog:

* testsuite/gas/bpf/mem.s: ldabs instructions do not take a `src'
register as an argument.
* testsuite/gas/bpf/mem.d: Updated accordingly.
* testsuite/gas/bpf/mem-be.d: Likewise.
* doc/c-bpf.texi (BPF Opcodes): Update to reflect the correct
explicit arguments to ldabs and ldind instructions.
The eBPF non-generic load instructions ldind{b,h,w,dw} and
ldabs{b,h,w,dw} do not take an explicit destination register as an
argument. Instead, they put the loaded value in %r0, implicitly.
This patch fixes the CPU BPF description to not expect a 'dst'
argument in these arguments, regenerates the corresponding files in
opcodes, and updates the impacted GAS tests.
Tested in a x86-64 host.
